Increases the risk of cot death

A study conducted in 2018 showed very alarming statistics and shows that smoking one cigarette a day during pregnancy doubles the risk of death in the baby’s crib - perhaps one of the biggest fears of parents of young babies.



A study that analyzed data on 20 million infants in the U.S. from information collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that not only is the risk of cot death multiplied by one cigarette per day, but it increases by an additional 0.07 for every additional cigarette a pregnant woman smokes. According to the researchers, 800 cases of cot death could be prevented each year out of 3,700 cases if pregnant women did not smoke.The study also found that women who smoked before becoming pregnant, even if they stopped in the first trimester, increased their children's risk of cot death.

May cause heart defects

Another large study examined the mother's bio-smoking relationship during pregnancy and heart problems in infants - a problem that is often unknown, and revealed a clear link.

The researchers reviewed more than 14,000 medical records of infants born with congenital heart defects between 1989 and 2011, and examined many pregnancy-related characteristics, including mothers' smoking habits.



Children's group data were compared to data from a group of over 60,000 healthy infants.

The data showed that babies born with a heart defect were more common in the neonatal group of mothers who smoked, with a particularly high rate among mothers who smoked heavily.

The combination of smoking and maternal age over 35 was most significant as a risk factor for heart defects.

Increases risk of tort and tics

In a comprehensive study published in the September 2014 issue of the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, American researchers argued that women who smoke during pregnancy significantly increase their children's risk of developing Tourette's Syndrome, or other "tic" disorders.



Researchers from Aiken Medical School at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York and researchers from Aarhus University in Denmark used official data collected in Denmark on 73,073 pregnancies and over time until children reached age 13, and tried to examine the link between smoking during pregnancy and Tourette's syndrome. , In obsessive-compulsive disorder in children.



They found that women who smoked 10 or more cigarettes a day, and were considered the heavy smokers in the group, increased their children's risk of suffering from torture by 66 percent more than their girlfriends who did not smoke during pregnancy.

They also found that the risk of developing chronic tic disorders increased two to three times as a result of smoking the mother during pregnancy if she also suffers from psychiatric disorders or ADHD.

Passive smoking is also harmful

But that's not all.

A study conducted in 2014 found that even passive smoking is harmful to the fetus.

A study conducted at the Roswell Park Cancer Center in Buffalo, New York found that pregnant women who were exposed to high levels of secondhand smoke were more likely to have abortions or give birth to stillbirths. The surprising and disturbing conclusion.
